Oracle Announces 26 Additions to Pro Series Schedule for 2020; Emory and Claremont Mudd Scripps Advance to Men's D-III Team Indoor Final

The University of Michigan hosted a men's Pro Series event in January
and has men's and women's events scheduled for June
One of my intriguing questions for 2020 asked if Oracle would continue to support college tennis after the death of Mark Hurd, and for this year at least, that answer is yes. After previously announcing nine events in the Pro Series through March, yesterday Oracle released the schedule for the remainder of 2020, which includes 26 more tournaments, from $25Ks to $80Ks ITF and ATP Challengers, most of which will be held on college campuses.
